THE FINALE OF SERIES 1!!!!!!!!!!!!
04 May 2002

[@JosephShambrook]

Karl is so sweet at the end. Buying thoughtful presents for Ricky and Steve. More thoughtful presents than what he bought his girlfriend for Christmas...

[@sprinter223]

I love watching these at night when im trying to fall asleep, Works like a charm

[@PeachesMagee]

Just me in 2024 doing exactly the same every single night. Hopefully you are still finding solace with the 3 best comedians in our lifetime xxx

[@edwardv1255]

Ricky lost his bet on the FA-cup final, btw. Arsenal won 2-0, and Henry didn't score. Just in case people are as obsessive as I am when it comes to checking stuff like that. :p

[@michaelhiggins854]

listening to an episode of this is the one thing that relaxes my mind more than anything

[@TomMilleyMusic]

i love that they play bowie a lot, and the play album tracks, not just the hits everyone knows.

[@Quiet_One]

That was sweet of Karl to give them presents.

[@ineffablemars]

The fact that he got them gifts is so fucking cute. What a sweet person.

[@matthewthomas6634]

these are brilliant, never get old, thanks for the uploads, top man!

[@aesthete18]

After having a go at him for 23 episodes, Karl still gets them gifts, what a guy!

[@johmedis]

Thanks for putting the date in the description, I was hoping I could find this one straight away. I love Karl reading that thing about the remote control and the dog from that little book he was given.

[@ringodooby]

I wonder if rickie and steve would be pissed off if they knew the most addicitive and entertaining work they've ever made is just recordings of them pissing about with karl. after all the effort they put into the office and extras, all they needed was a microphone and a baldy wee manc

[@jcrawley1]

Karl almost got away with the "if a duck stands on it" comment, Ricky very nearly let it go lol

[@Luigibob95]

Great stuff makes my day these vids

[@iXtraordinaire]

One of my favourite episodes.. Karl at his nonsensical yet completely spot on best!

[@floralzable]

so annoyed that youtube has taken majority of old episodes down, been listening to these for so long

[@leem4336]

Crazy that this used to be on the radio, so much swearing and it’s crazy that Ricky and Steve shout “BENDER!”

[@macswayne]

They need to make more!

[@olitarling6890]

hahahaha always amazing, my pick me up if im feeling shite.

[@gleam6370]

“God it’s roasting”

[@maxcohen13]

_Ding-Dong_ *Dog:* whas thaa?

[@95PW]

"Does he walk like an Egypt bloke?" hahaha

[@darrenmoorelufc]

These shows are like crack cocaine, I listen to them every day! Great when I manage to find something I haven't heard before.

[@noveltybobel]

It's so sweet that Karl gave them both a little present at the end :)

[@digitaldylantoddni]

Karls dog impression killed me haha

[@LyingSecret]

Same as me, being entertained! What more can you ask for huh? :)

[@GooglyEyedJoe]

47:50 - "Did you win?" "No, I think I came second, this really tarty girl who did Madonna 'Like a Virgin' and I thought 'yeah right!'. Like, 'you are!, she was a right ropey little woman!" xD

[@xpete123x]

all seasons are on youtube now.. since 2006

[@benwilbor6931]

Not a day goes by that I don't listen to xfm it's addictive

[@mcn625]

Listening to all this spider talk I swear I'm seeing bugs in my room! Freaking me out completely! The huge spider jumping on you, I'd die

[@bSMith266]

the thing is most of the material in the office and extras is from the radio shows

[@Andrew-jm2io]

Awesome

[@Vhargon]

I love the fact that the presents that Karl bought them were more thoughtful than the condoms he bought for Suzanne.

[@bmillbrook]

comedy gold

[@GibsonLesPaul2273]

When I lived in Essex the chip shops sold just fish and chips and maybe a mince pie but up north we have all kinds of stuff.

[@creakushcoliko4204]

12:20 I just imagine this fella going: ''The Arsenal did well, didn't they sir? Do, do, do... Would you like a little something on that? You've got, you have the hair of a chinaman'' '' I'm sorry?'' ''Nothing, you're not the spy?'' ''No, I'm not.'' ''Thank you, goodnight''

[@thesprawl2361]

Bit insulting to the listeners' competition entries for Ricky to bring in a friend's entry and for Karl to completely ignore everything and just read out bits of that instead. He ought to've known how easily Karl gets distracted...

[@04tommo]

we should set up a support group mate, i can practically mouth the words as they say them

[@pilkerss]

I've listened to these shows way too many times..what the fuck am i doing

[@aphillips1987]

look at 'is littoo fice.

[@VandrefalkTV]

46:42 That laugh, hahhahahah.

[@MattySadler]

"wash that?" haha

[@essengeebee]

I bet every CD that Steve owns came free with a magazine.

[@twjclarke1]

the bit where Steve has a go at Karl for not listening to the is great! 29.40. Come on Karl, get with the program. Alright?

[@apage611]

so funny :D

[@creakushcoliko4204]

7:15 A Baby midget... that is tiny Rick.

[@maiacookieharlowunicorn1151]

lets dance...

[@mike112769]

They keep me awake.

[@pilkerss]

Shit, you too? Thanks for that. I thought I was the only freak out there

[@HOWlTZA]

Definitely, I prefer this to the podcasts for the simple fact Karl is trying to keep his job and stop Ricky & Steve from swearing and be "professional" HO LEE FUK. riiiight....

[@PrivateAckbar]

Karl's point about infamy trumping fame is the exact point of most of what Ricky's done.

[@TheAwesomeOne221]

but there all on youtube already

[@Luigibob95]

Will you be putting up more series

[@iamtherealrenedescartes]

46:43 That laugh!

[@Wackyfox]

Just think of that, will you, just think of that, a duck going around saying "Ooh, I don't feel well." OH MY GOD, MY SIDES, AHAHAHAHA.

[@Alexandraisonfire]

The story about the hair thing at the end.... totally true. Knew a girl in school who had to get a 'hairball' removed. :S So awful!

[@creakushcoliko4204]

12:00 Hairdresser once said to me: ''You've got the hair of a chinaman''.

[@MattySadler]

"cobblers" haha

[@RH3D]

i think karl was right up till 2mins in and ricky and steve just manipulated him and the situation to get out of trouble... anyone else felt this?

[@ArsenalsJack1992]

this episode used to bug me, Karl says the Egypt bloke n stuff and then later he says the correct term for it in 2 different ways

[@mooghead]

They jammed the thing in the microwave, not sure if this is the first or second time this story was told with the same hilarious Ricky laugh... :/

[@deloford]

2nd time. at 57:00 karl says 'you know I was telling you that story about the girl who used a microwave to dry her hair'? Ricky doesnt laugh at all and actually sounds rather non-impressed... But yea a lot of the stories are retold.

[@benwilbor6931]

Wet knee Houston

[@96EricCantona96]

He comes across between. A cat. And rain man.

[@creakushcoliko4204]

47:51 - No, I think we came second, this really tarty girl who did Madonna ''Like a Virgin'' and I thought ''yeah right!''. Like, you are. She was a right ropey little woman. But, err... - Sour grapes!

[@gasparagusproductions3563]

Karl's right; funnel web spiders can form a bubble around themselves and hold their breath.

[@crs925x7]

+Gasparagus Productions hundreds of insects can do it.

[@TopTenSam]

26:01

[@martin63613]

46:56 The great pilkoli

[@DRATER700]

That's not possible.

[@JesusIzAPunkRocker]

[@ryanleexuanhao]

Hi

[@jgillanis]

Hey

[@luukeluketer1024]

Egypt bloke....

[@svedishbiker]

At 23:00; i would love to see the show with that spoilt brat!

[@Kris-2]

svedishbiker it's called super sweet sixteen if you think you handle it.

[@TheRobbie1988]

D

[@louisparr]

Ricky saying that animals never do anything they like to do.. Now that's stupidity....

[@TheAmericanDane]

Yea I agree, my dog has caught rabbits before and for no reason atall she throws them in the air and catches them again! No particular reason for her to do it unless she enjoyed it!

[@smu3l1]

in a spiders case it is actually quite true

[@TheBusterMan]

Karl has achondroplasiaphobia!

[@Dickie2shoes]

One of them farts at 37:23

[@JFKUnderscore]

Dickie2shoes well heard lol

[@UNNOIN]

Dickie2shoes Sounds more like a chair creaking to be honest

[@crs925x7]

+Dickie2shoes and at 40:27
